Since debuting with the UFC in early 2014 as the inaugural women’s 135-pound champion, Rousey has dominated the competition. In fact, in 12 career wins, only one opponent – Tate – survived past the first round. In her last four fights, the 28-year-old Olympic bronze medalist has dominated the competition with quick wins over Sara McMann (66 seconds), Alexis Davis (16 seconds), Cat Zingano (14 seconds) and Correia (34 seconds).

The pay-per-view juggernaut now faces Holm, who turned her attention to MMA in 2011 while closing out a solid 33-2-3 pro-boxing career. After winning a title with Legacy FC in 2014, the 33-year-old signed with the UFC and posted victories over Raquel Pennington (split decision) and Marion Reneau (unanimous decision). Although previously seen as the most likely opponent to defeat Rousey because of her proven striking skills, Holm has somewhat underwhelmed in the UFC because of the narrow victories despite her heavy-favorite status.
